Term Information

Accession
GO:0019549
Name
glutamate catabolic process to succinate via succinate semialdehyde
Ontology
biological_process
Synonyms
glutamate catabolic process to succinate via pyruvate-dependent GABA-transaminase activity, glutamate breakdown to succinate, glutamate degradation to succinate
Alternate IDs
None
Definition
The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of glutamate into succinate, that includes the conversion of 4-aminobutyrate to succinate semialdehyde by the pyruvate-dependent gamma aminobutyrate (GABA) transaminase. Source: MetaCyc:PWY-4321, GOC:bf, GOC:go_curators
Comment
While mammals only have 2-oxoglutarate-dependent GABA-transaminase, both 2-oxoglutarate-dependent and pyruvate-dependent GABA-transaminase activities have been detected in plants.
